617 Johnny Cash (1932-2003) “Ring of Fire” 1963

“Written by June Carter and Merle Kilgore, ‘Ring of Fire’ was originally intended for June’s sister Anita…The song’s inspiration is surely that of June falling hook, line and sinker for Johnny (around 1962 when the song was written)” (Stephen Miller, Johnny Cash, 2003).
